hi all,
i am from Serbia living in Canada and here they call it soccer . i am fairly new to the forum and love all the various topics and situations, it really helps in practice. i had a situation last night and i would like to see what the right call should have been.
this time i was involved in a game as a player.
here is the situation: we are in the attacking third and i tried passing the ball to my winger on the left, however the defender handles the ball on purpose and prevents a goal scoring opportunity. the ball bounces back towards me and i catch it instinctly expecting the call and a yellow for the defender. the ref then blows the whistle, books the defender and gives them the ball with arguments that he has to sanctions the last action.
in my mind, it would have made more sense to book us both and we keep the ball, than what he did.
what is the right call here? thanks for all the help!
